Ebola virus: A global public health menace: A narrative review

open access: yesJournal of Family Medicine and Primary Care, 2019
Ebola virus disease (EVD), a fatal viral hemorrhagic illness, is due to infection with the Ebola virus of the Filoviridae family. The disease has evolved as a global public health menace due to a large immigrant population.

Neurological, Cognitive, and Psychological Findings Among Survivors of Ebola Virus Disease From the 1995 Ebola Outbreak in Kikwit, Democratic Republic of Congo: A Cross-sectional Study. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
BackgroundClinical sequelae of Ebola virus disease (EVD) have not been described more than 3 years postoutbreak. We examined survivors and close contacts from the 1995 Ebola outbreak in Kikwit, Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), and determined ...

Widespread SARS‐CoV‐2 Transmission Despite Limited Reported Cases and Clinical Disease: Exploring the Role of Pre‐Existing Humoral Immunity to SARS‐CoV‐2 in Eastern Sierra Leone

open access: yesImmunity, Inflammation and Disease, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Since December 2019, SARS‐CoV‐2 has infected over 700 million people and caused > 7 million deaths. While much of the global north was severely affected, sub‐Saharan Africa was relatively spared. Possible reasons include a younger population, fewer comorbidities, and pre‐existing immunity.

Long-lasting severe immune dysfunction in Ebola virus disease survivors

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Long-term follow up studies from Ebola virus disease (EVD) survivors (EBOV_S) are lacking. Here, we evaluate immune and gene expression profiles in 35 Guinean EBOV_S from the last West African outbreak, a median of 23 months (IQR [18–25]) after discharge

Carbohydrate‐Based Drug Discovery: Synthetic Strategies and Clinical Applications

open access: yesIsrael Journal of Chemistry, Volume 66, Issue 3, May 2026.
The picture depicts the molecules discussed in the review. On the left side, the general scaffold of sugars is shown. Next to it are four carbohydrate‐based molecules, including remdesivir, islatravir, empagliflozin, and Globo‐H. Remdesivir and islatravir contain a substituted ribose ring attached to a modified nucleobase.

Development of Clinical-Stage Human Monoclonal Antibodies That Treat Advanced Ebola Virus Disease in Nonhuman Primates

open access: yesJournal of Infectious Diseases, 2018
Background For most classes of drugs, rapid development of therapeutics to treat emerging infections is challenged by the timelines needed to identify compounds with the desired efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetic profiles.

Emetine inhibits Zika and Ebola virus infections through two molecular mechanisms: inhibiting viral replication and decreasing viral entry

open access: yesCell Discovery, 2018
The re-emergence of Zika virus (ZIKV) and Ebola virus (EBOV) poses serious and continued threats to the global public health. Effective therapeutics for these maladies is an unmet need.

The Roles of Alix and VPS4A in Autophagy and Endosomal Pathways and Their Relation to HBV Replication

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 7, 15 April 2026.
Alix and VPS4A function in HBV biogenesis and degradation in the context of the endosomal and autophagic pathways. Alix and VPS4A orchestrate HBV secretion and degradation via endosomal and autophagic pathways. Under normal conditions, ESCRT ensures efficient virion budding and MVB formation.
